Airbnb Superhost Creates Relaxing Guest Experiences with Touchstone Electric Fireplaces

Are you dreaming of a coastal waterfront vacation? Airbnb Superhost, Palmetto and Birch, design and manage oceanfront rentals along the South Carolina shore, complete with extra long Touchstone Sideline Elite® Smart Electric Fireplaces. The XL indoor electric fireplaces are welcome amenities and help to elevate the properties in the community.

Create a Space Where Guests Unwind and Reconnect

The family-owned business specializes in short-term rentals on the beaches of South Carolina that “feel like a breath of fresh, salty air.” The Airbnb super hosts share, “Creating a space where guests can truly unwind and reconnect has become a true joy. Every project is guided by one purpose: to transform a stay into a memory."

Palmetto and Birch currently offers two South Carolina beach rentals: Salty Mermaid in Murrell's Inlet and Ocean Currents in Garden City Beach. Along with all the beach house essentials and beautiful decor, these properties include the widest Sideline Elite Smart Electric Fireplaces, paired with big screen televisions.

“When designing our flagship coastal property, Salty Mermaid, we searched for a fireplace that could deliver an elevated visual impact with simplicity,” the Palmetto and Birch team explain. “When researching user-friendly aesthetic electric fireplaces, Touchstone® kept coming up in our search. The moment we saw the scale and realism of the Sideline Elite series, we were hooked.”

The Preferred Electric Fireplace Brand

Palmetto and Birch describes Touchstone as the fireplace brand that best fits their desired waterfront “aesthetic.”

“Touchstone fireplaces blend seamlessly into our design philosophy for our guests’ experience: modern, coastal, and timeless. We love how they elevate a space with aesthetic warmth and functionality. The fireplace easily becomes a focal point without overpowering a space. For our guests, sipping morning coffee or reading a book by the fire, all while overlooking the ocean, is often a highlight of their stay."

Ocean Currents Renovated Oceanfront Condo

Their latest retreat, Ocean Currents, is a freshly renovated oceanfront condo in Garden City Beach, South Carolina.

Palmetto and Birch shares, “The design blends mid-century modern style with soft, coastal textures. Flanked by coastal sconces and set beneath a wall-mounted 85-inch TV in a framed custom shiplap feature wall, the 100-inch Touchstone Sideline Elite brings harmony to the open-concept living room. With the ocean just beyond the sliding glass doors, this pairing of fire and water offers guests a truly unforgettable experience.”
